In order to remove the components the cable leading to the negative terminal should be disconnected. After that, it is necessary to take out the VTC oil control solenoid valve and the valve cover. Lose the right front wheel lug nuts, lift the front part of the vehicle and set it on jackstands, then remove the right front wheel. Slip off the splash shield off the lower side of the engine bay and then pull off the drivebelt. Next, it is necessary to take off the crankshaft pulley and to disconnect the crankshaft position sensor harness together with other electrical connectors that will hinder the process of Timing Cover loosening. Expel the motor oil and place the car on the floor jack securing it with a wooden plank on the oil pan not to harm the motor. Disconnect the ground cable and then take off the upper engine mount bracket, the side engine mount bracket and the mounting bolts of Timing Cover and then pull out the Timing Cover of motor and then, pull out the engine cover-to-block gasket. For installation, clean all the sealing surfaces of both the Timing Cover and the block but are most careful with aluminum component. If needed replace the crankshaft seal on the Timing Cover with a new one. Cure RTV sealant to the Timing Cover mating surfaces, upper contact surface areas and the oil pan mating surface and small quantity into the inner threaded holes. Replace a new Timing Cover O-ring and then the Timing Cover and its fasters should be correctly located and hand tightened to cover make contact with the block. Torque the bolts to the recommended values, fit the crankshaft pulley and join the wiring connectors and fasten them with clips. Replace the other parts in reverse sequence; add the deserved engine oil into the crankcase; join the battery terminals; and start the engine, to see that there are no leaks and to check the fluids.
